COVER: Codec-Robust Video Watermarking with Generative Video Priors

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

COVER is a new video watermarking method that targets codec compression as its primary design goal. It embeds the watermark payload in the latent space of a frozen generative video autoencoder and recovers it by re‑encoding the received video into the same latent space. Using a differentiable codec surrogate bank, COVER achieves high bit accuracy across multiple codecs while keeping marked videos visually close to the originals.

GVCC: Zero-Shot Video Compression via Codebook-Driven Stochastic Rectified Flow

The paper introduces GVCC, a zero‑shot video compression framework that uses a pretrained generative video model as the decoder. GVCC transforms deterministic rectified‑flow samplers into stochastic processes, enabling the transmission of compressed information through per‑step stochastic innovations. The authors evaluate three GVCC variants—Text‑to‑Video, Image‑to‑Video, and First‑Last‑Frame‑to‑Video—on the UVG dataset, reporting perceptual, fidelity, and temporal metrics without claiming global rate‑distortion gains.

CRAW: Codec Robust Audio Watermarking

The paper introduces CRAW, a codec‑robust audio watermarking framework designed to embed imperceptible signals into synthetic speech. CRAW enhances robustness against neural re‑synthesis, codecs, denoisers, and vocoders while preserving high perceptual quality through distortion‑aware training, attention‑based pooling, perceptual masking, and error‑correcting codes. Experiments show CRAW outperforms existing post‑hoc watermarking methods in robustness without compromising audio quality.
